I will post this photo to my both flickr accounts. Those followers who want to see my pics I want to clarify that Kunisaki Izumo account is focused on Kabuki while Kunisaki Izumo Alt account is more freely documenting my other activities too.
And the costume I am wearing.. It is not stage clothing. Neither is hair or shoes but the expressions and poses are from rl kabuki.
Kestrel perched on a sculpture at Yorkshire Sculpture Park earlier this week. We walked around a corner and there he was! He didn't stay long and this was the only shot I took. I think this is a male - hopefully my Flickr friends will clarify for me!
Thank you for stopping by to look at my images. Any faves and comments are always very much appreciated.
Have a great day Flickr friends.
From a beautiful walk along a rugged landscape made up of old quarries, cliffs and scree. Those green hills in the frame are overgrown spoil heaps. It was another walk from the short walks in the Brecon Beacons guide we followed which led us down a wrong path. Luckily we walked into a mum with her two boys along the way and she was following the same track, had the same guide with her. She clarified where we went wrong but also agreed that it was pretty poorly described. Without her we might still be wandering around those hills :-)

Identified this as the orange daylily with a plant app. We found information on the itnernet that it is toxic but that it is edible. We determined that it is toxic to cats but probably edible by humans. One person posted that it was very delicious. Looks like it is too sweet for us, will somebody please test it and let us know if it is poisonous? Just kidding, do not try unless you know it.is ok. Please post clarifying information.

Unbestimmte Fliege mit Tropfen/ unknown fly with drop
Der Grund für dieses Verhalten ist offenbar noch nicht abschließend geklärt: es könnte zur Verdauung beitragen oder zur Regelung der Temperatur.
The reason for this behavior is apparently not yet conclusively clarified: it could contribute to digestion or to regulating the temperature.

Heute war es zwar nur 10° "warm"... aber sonnig und windstill im Garten - ich habe mehrere Fliegen mit solchen Tropfen fotografiert.
Old camera, old lens (Helios 44M-7 at F2), old 2x teleconverter. It is still a very fine combo and it is satisfying too when images are as it were, 'hand-made'. I should clarify that when you add a teleconverter you also change aperture. Realistically, it would be something like F4, but the Helios lens still produces its famous bokeh.
I have been able to set for a another sunrise session along the river Adda (see Rising soul and her companion Silence inside).
The branches of the poplars were rich in fresh buddies, with their varied, unique greens. The air was veiled by a thin haze. Silence reigned absolute, aside from the birdsongs - which are an integral part of silence, to me. While waiting for the sunrise I was listening to the low murmur of the water telling her ancient secrets.
This image is derived from an experiment. I have downloaded a software called Chasys Draw, to look at one of its most interesting features, image stacking. I created an image stack from my bracketing and tried the denoising feature. Interesting result, from an interesting technique from astrophotography. Then I imported the image in the Gimp and created a monochrome version. I applied wavelet decomposition and retained only the residual layer (that with no detail) and blended it with the original image by "grain merge". This is the result :-)
P.S.
Just for the sake of being honest, I would like to clarify that the soft and silky mood of the water is not a result of long exposure or any other choice/trick/ability of mine: it was just so: the riverbed widens a lot in that spot and the river flows very quietly, meandering through the plain. There was a thin layer of mist hovering just above the water, and this did the effect.
As seen when flying over the Southwestern United States - some dodging and burning clarified the image, but mostly this is simply from the camera....
Addendum....these are definitely 'parched' lands, and the white is the leftover salts from dried-up lakes - no ocean, no waves, just barren land.....
If this is your vision of "Darling, are we going to have a nice picnic together?" - "as soon as he wakes up I clarify my vision on marriage" (Lol)

As these are an identification minefield into which I dare not go, that is all the information you are getting. However, if anyone can clarify I'd appreciate it
La cattedrale metropolitana di Santa Maria Assunta è il principale luogo di culto cattolico di Siena, in Toscana, sede dell'arcidiocesi metropolitana di Siena-Colle di Val d'Elsa-Montalcino; l'edificio è situato nell'omonima piazza.
Costruita in stile romanico-gotico italiano, è una delle più significative chiese realizzate in questo stile in Italia. Inizio costruzione nel 1220 circa e completamento nel 1370 circa, da vari artisti tra cui Giovanni Pisano e Camaino di Crescentino.
La facciata, tutta in marmo bianco con qualche decorazione in rosso di Siena e serpentino di Prato, è divisibile in due metà, inferiore e superiore, riferibili a due distinte fasi costruttive. La ricchezza della decorazione, prevalentemente scultorea, nasconde irregolarità e asimmetrie derivate dalla lunga fase costruttiva a cui misero mano molteplici progettisti.
Parte superiore
La parte superiore della facciata è opera di Camaino di Crescentino (padre del più famoso Tino di Camaino), che vi lavorò tra il 1299 circa e il 1317. Un tempo la paternità del progetto era attribuita a Giovanni di Cecco, che vi avrebbe lavorato dopo il 1376, sulla base di un documento che parlava di lavori “alla Facciata in piazza del Duomo, logia del vescovo”, che si pensava si riferissero alla facciata del duomo e invece riferiti alla facciata del Palazzo Vescovile, anch'essa sulla stessa piazza e anch'essa dimora del vescovo. Il ritrovamento di un documento del 1310 che incita alla realizzazione di un mosaico per la cuspide centrale e tre cronache trecentesche precedentemente ignorate, che datano al 1317 il completamento della facciata, hanno chiarito questo aspetto.
Camaino di Crescentino dette alla facciata l'odierno aspetto tricuspidale. Un bellissimo oculo si apre al centro, incorniciato da nicchie gotiche contenenti i busti di Apostoli e Profeti che rendono omaggio alla Madonna col Bambino, identificabile nella nicchia centrale superiore (gli originali sono nel Museo dell'Opera del Duomo). Ai lati due pilastri incorniciano questa struttura e terminano in pinnacoli e quindi in sottilissime guglie, accentuando lo slancio verso l'alto dell'edificio. Lateralmente sono presenti due ordini di loggette, mentre il tutto è sormontato da tre cuspidi dorate. I tre mosaici dorati, che raffigurano da sinistra a destra la Presentazione di Maria al Tempio, l'Incoronazione della Vergine e La Natività di Gesù, furono eseguiti a Venezia nel 1878, su disegno di Alessandro Franchi. L'oculo reca invece una vetrata di Pastorino dei Pastorini (metà del XVI secolo), raffigurante l'Ultima Cena e visibile dall'interno.
Nel complesso la facciata superiore è in stile gotico fiorito. Intorno ai primi anni del Trecento, l'architetto senese Lorenzo Maitani iniziò i lavori per la facciata del Duomo di Orvieto, visibilmente influenzata dalla facciata superiore senese. Essendo però tale stile applicato a tutta la facciata, anziché alla sola parte superiore, la facciata della cattedrale orvietana risulta una versione perfezionata della facciata senese. Non è del tutto chiaro chi delle due fece da modello all'altra, ma avendo i lavori di Camaino di Crescentino anticipato di qualche anno quelli di Lorenzo Maitani ed avendo la città di Siena influenza maggiore rispetto a quella di Orvieto, è probabile che sia stata Siena a fare da modello ad Orvieto, piuttosto che viceversa.In ogni caso è evidente a Siena un difetto architettonico, con i pilastri ai lati del rosone che non coincidono con quelli ai lati del portale mediano, nella metà inferiore.
--------------------------------------------
The metropolitan cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta is the main Catholic place of worship in Siena, Tuscany, home of the metropolitan archdiocese of Siena-Colle di Val d'Elsa-Montalcino; the building is located in the square of the same name.
Built in Italian Romanesque-Gothic style, it is one of the most significant churches built in this style in Italy. Construction began around 1220 and completed in about 1370, by various artists including Giovanni Pisano and Camaino di Crescentino.
The façade, all in white marble with some decorations in red from Siena and serpentine from Prato, can be divided into two halves, lower and upper, referable to two distinct construction phases. The richness of the decoration, predominantly sculptural, hides irregularities and asymmetries derived from the long construction phase to which many designers worked.
Upper part
The upper part of the facade is the work of Camaino di Crescentino (father of the more famous Tino di Camaino), who worked there between about 1299 and 1317. Once the paternity of the project was attributed to Giovanni di Cecco, who would have worked there after 1376, on the basis of a document that spoke of works "to the facade in Piazza del Duomo, the bishop's logo", which was thought to refer to the facade of the cathedral and instead referred to the facade of the Bishop's Palace, also on the same square and also the bishop's home. The discovery of a document from 1310 that incites the creation of a mosaic for the central cusp and three previously ignored fourteenth-century chronicles, which date back to 1317 completing the façade, have clarified this aspect.
Camaino di Crescentino gave the facade its present three-spired appearance. A beautiful oculus opens in the center, framed by Gothic niches containing the busts of Apostles and Prophets that pay homage to the Madonna and Child, identifiable in the upper central niche (the originals are in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo). At the sides two pillars frame this structure and end in pinnacles and then in very thin spiers, accentuating the building's upward momentum. Laterally there are two orders of loggias, while the whole is surmounted by three golden cusps. The three golden mosaics, depicting the Presentation of Mary at the Temple from left to right, the Coronation of the Virgin and the Nativity of Jesus, were performed in Venice in 1878, designed by Alessandro Franchi. The oculus bears a stained-glass window by Pastorino dei Pastorini (mid 16th century), depicting the Last Supper and visible from the inside.
Overall, the upper façade is in flowery Gothic style. Around the beginning of the fourteenth century, the Sienese architect Lorenzo Maitani began work on the façade of the Duomo of Orvieto, visibly influenced by the Sienese upper façade. However, since this style is applied to the entire façade, rather than to the upper part alone, the façade of the Orvieto cathedral is an improved version of the Sienese facade. It is not entirely clear which of the two was a model for the other, but having the works of Camaino di Crescentino anticipated by a few years those of Lorenzo Maitani and having the city of Siena more influenced than that of Orvieto, it is likely that it was Siena acts as a model for Orvieto, rather than vice versa. In any case, an architectural defect is evident in Siena, with the pillars on the sides of the rose window that do not coincide with those on the sides of the median portal, in the lower half.
Hierbei handelt es sich um ein immer wieder auftretendes, aber selten zu beobachtendes Verhalten bei Insekten verschiedener Familien und Ordnungen. Die kleinen Tiere würgen einen mehr oder weniger klaren Tropfen heraus, halten ihn kurz mit ihren Mundwerkzeugen fest, um ihn anschließend mit dem Saugrüssel (bei Fliegen) wieder einzusaugen. Das Ganze wird mehrmals wiederholt - immer wieder erscheint der Tropfen am Mund, wird pulsierend ausgewürgt und wieder eingesogen. Manchmal wird der Tropfen dabei immer größer.
Der Grund für dieses Verhalten ist bis heute nicht abschließend geklärt

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a recurring but seldom observed behavior in insects of different families and orders. The small animals choke out a more or less clear drop, hold it briefly with their mouthparts, and then suck it in again with their proboscis (in the case of flies). The whole thing is repeated several times - the drop appears again and again on the mouth, is choked out in a pulsating manner and then sucked in again. Sometimes the drop gets bigger and bigger.
The reason for this behavior has not yet been conclusively clarified

The Cathedral of Seville is built on the old aljama mosque of the city, this shows the power that one culture exercises over another when it is conquered. This fact makes its plan different, facing Mecca and not Jerusalem, that is, facing south instead of east. It should be clarified that Mecca is oriented at 10o from Seville and not at 86o as the old mosque is oriented, this is due to the fact that in Al-Andalus the mosques had to be oriented towards the south quadrant and not towards the east, as the Christian churches did. When the Cathedral Chapter commissioned the design of the Gothic Cathedral, it stated verbatim that it wanted a Cathedral that everyone who saw it would take for crazy. For this, 5 naves were created that covered the 116 by 76 meter rectangle occupied by the Almohad mosque, this results, unlike what was usual in the great European Gothic Cathedrals, a hall plan with a Latin cross marked in height and in width by the central naves and the transept. This hall plan also results in the absence of an ambulatory at the head, which ends in a straight line like the wall of the old mosque. Later the Royal Chapel would be added, which is a Renaissance apse, but it does not really correspond to the Gothic company. In the naves of the Gospel and the Epistle, which are the lateral naves, there are many chapels. The 60 pillars support 68 ogive vaults, highlighting those of the transept and central nave with their star shapes. Instead of placing a clerestory, a continuous balcony was chosen along the main nave in order to be able to wander around the temple without being seen. Located in the central nave, in order from the feet, are the Retrochoir, the Choir, with two organs, the Transept, the Main Altar, the Back of Altar and the Royal Chapel.

Paseando por Chamonix hice esta fotografía con el Mont Blanc al fondo. No la busqué, simplemente iba haciendo fotos a lo que me parecía interesante ya que es muy difícil fotografiar esta montaña limpiamente.
Cuando no son nubes que lo tapan, es niebla o el reflejo del sol sobre una nieve tan blanca quema la fotografía y lo demás sale todo casi negro.
Esta vez salió y solo tuve que aclarar algo los primeros planos para que se viera todo.
Parece que Chamonix sea una ciudad de gran belleza y no es así. Creo que es mas una ciudad turística y alegre debido a la cercanía de las pistas de esquí. No hay edificios singulares ni nada por el estilo. quizá sus paisajes cercanos son lo que mas valor le da a esta ciudad.
Al otro lado del túnel del Mont Blanc está Courmayeur que ya es Italia aunque su nombre suena a francés y no tiene ni la mitad de la fama que Chamonix siendo dos ciudades parecidas.
Lo curioso es que en Courmayeur tengo amigos que tienen casa y no conseguí ir, ya que los aviso luminosos advertían que para atravesar el túnel había colas de una hora y media hasta tres horas los fines de semana. Como comprenderás no fui.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Walking through Chamonix I took this picture with Mont Blanc in the background. I didn't look for it, I was just taking pictures of what seemed interesting to me since it is very difficult to photograph this mountain cleanly.
When they are not clouds that cover it, it is fog or the reflection of the sun on such white snow burns the photograph and everything else is almost black.
This time I got it and I just had to clarify the foregrounds so that everything could be seen.
It seems that Chamonix is a city of great beauty and it is not like that. I think it is more a tourist and happy city due to the proximity of the ski slopes. There are no singular buildings or anything like that. Perhaps its near landscapes are what gives more value to this city.
On the other side of the Mont Blanc tunnel is Courmayeur, which is already Italy, although its name sounds French and does not have half the reputation of Chamonix being two similar cities.
The funny thing is that in Courmayeur I have friends who have a house and I did not get to go, since the luminous warning warned that to cross the tunnel there were queues of an hour and a half up to three hours on weekends. As you will understand I did not go.
When a group of animals or birds get together there is more often than not a pecking order. It looks like this Great Black Backed Gull is emphasising its seniority here.
I am unsure what type of gull the juvenile on the receiving end of this painful bite is but my guess would be a first year Great Black Backed Gull. If anyone can clarify or put me right please feel free to do so.

I painted this artwork in Berlin in the summer of 2019 at the art studio of Susanne Kessler. The studio was poisoned by one or another service the way I had to leave after a few days . The last work I painted there I gave the title of "Dein Kampf" to clarify the totalitarian situation in which Europe has ended up

Nel pannello centrale è raffigurato S. Clemente assiso in trono con la mano destra in atto di benedire. Alla sua sinistra Leonate che consegna il modello della chiesa che va ricostruendo. Alla sua destra Cornelio, martire, con il manipolo e S. Febo con manipolo e stola. La collocazione di S. Clemente al centro dei pannelli vuole simboleggiare nella storia dell’abbazia la continuità, l’unione fra il momento delle origini e quello presente. Nell’architrave viene illustrata, come in un fumetto, la leggenda della fondazione dell’abbazia: le iscrizioni (qui come nella lunetta eseguite con la tecnica del niello: le incisioni effettuate cioè sono riempite con una pasta di rame, piombo, zolfo, argento e borace rosso che, indurendosi, rende la scrittura nera e indelebile) chiariscono fatti e personaggi. La rappresentazione può essere divisa in quattro parti in ognuna delle quali è presente Ludovico II. (fonte Wikipedia)
In the central panel is depicted St. Clement seated on a throne with his right hand in the act of blessing. On his left Leonate who delivers the model of the church that is being rebuilt. On his right Cornelius, martyr, with the handpiece and S. Febo with handpiece and stole. The placement of St. Clement in the middle of the panels symbolizes continuity in the history of the abbey, the union between the moment of origins and the present. In the architrave, the legend of the foundation of the abbey is illustrated, as in a comic strip: the inscriptions (here as in the lunette made with the niello technique: ie the incisions made are filled with a paste of copper, lead, sulfur, silver and red borax that, hardening, makes the writing black and indelible) clarify facts and characters. The representation can be divided into four parts in each of which is present Ludovico II. (source Wikipedia)

"There′s a place I go to
Where no one knows me
It's not lonely
It′s a necessary thing
It's a place I made up
Find out what I'm made of
The nights I′ve stayed up
Counting stars and fighting sleep
Let it wash over me
I′m ready to lose my feet
Take me off to the place where one reveals life's mystery
Steady on down the line
Lose every sense of time
Take it all in and wake up that small part of me
Day to day I′m blind to see
And find how far to go
Everybody got their reason
Everybody got their way
We're just catching and releasing
What builds up throughout the day
It gets into your body
And it flows right through your blood
We can tell each other secrets
And remember how to love
There′s a place I'm going
No one knows me
If I breathe real slowly
I let it out and let it in
It can be terrifying
To be slowly dying
Also, clarifying
We end where we begin
So let it wash over me
I′m ready to lose my feet
Take me off to the place where one reveals life's mystery
Steady on down the line
Lose every sense of time
Take it all in and wake up that small part of me
Day to day I'm blind to see

-In augustus 1945 riepen de Indonesische leiders de onafhankelijke Republik Indonesia uit. Nederland erkende deze onafhankelijkheid niet en raakte daardoor, direct na het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog in Zuidoost Azië, verwikkeld in een nieuw gewelddadig conflict. In 1950 was de strijd om de onafhankelijkheid van Indonesië beslist en werd het Koninklijk Nederlands Indisch Leger (KNIL) ontbonden. De tentoonstelling ‘Oorlog!’ zet 70 jaar na dato de dekolonisatieperiode vanaf 1945 in een historisch en internationaal perspectief en wil het complexe verhaal en de positie van het KNIL daarin verduidelijken.
In deze tentoonstelling staat de periode centraal, waarin op gewelddadige wijze een eind kwam aan de Nederlandse koloniale overheersing van Nederlands-Indië.
De expositie is samengesteld rond objecten uit de collectie van Museum Bronbeek en de Indonesische fotocollectie Antara, en bruiklenen van het Rijksmuseum, het Wereldmuseum en het Achterhoeks Museum. Daarbij geeft een chronologische weergave van feiten de bezoeker overzicht en brengen persoonlijke verhalen de gebeurtenissen van toen dichterbij.
De tentoonstelling geeft verdieping bij de vaste tentoonstelling ‘Het Verhaal van Indië’ in Museum Bronbeek, bij Arnhem.
-In August 1945, the Indonesian leaders proclaimed the independent Republic of Indonesia. Netherlands did not recognize this independence and became therefore, immediately after the end of the Second World War in Southeast Asia, engaged in a new violent conflict. In 1950, the battle to decide the independence of Indonesia and disbanded the Royal Dutch East Indies Army (KNIL). The exhibition 'War!' Gets 70 years after the decolonization period from 1945 in a historical and international perspective and wants the complex story and the position of the KNIL clarify it.
This exhibition focuses on the period of central, which violently an end to the Dutch colonial rule of the Dutch East Indies.
The exhibition is built around objects from the collection of Museum Bronbeek and the Indonesian Antara photo collection and on loan from the Rijksmuseum, the World Museum and the Achterhoeks Museum. Thereby giving a chronology of events the visitor list and bring personal stories events when closer.
The exhibition gives floor to the permanent exhibition "The Story of India" in Bronbeek Museum, Arnhem.
The Cathedral of Seville is built on the old aljama mosque of the city, this shows the power that one culture exercises over another when it is conquered. This fact makes its plan different, facing Mecca and not Jerusalem, that is, facing south instead of east. It should be clarified that Mecca is oriented at 10o from Seville and not at 86o as the old mosque is oriented, this is due to the fact that in Al-Andalus the mosques had to be oriented towards the south quadrant and not towards the east, as the Christian churches did. When the Cathedral Chapter commissioned the design of the Gothic Cathedral, it stated verbatim that it wanted a Cathedral that everyone who saw it would take for crazy.

Big Dutch ship on the Mosel filled with coal clearly shows that
Germany switches back to coal to overcome the current energy crisis. The image seems so much typical for our current time that it is hard to imagine that it is less connected to today that you might expect.
To clarify what I mean, I give a link below to a YouTube song from Roland Van Campenhout, an excellent Belgian musician and performing artist with his song about the energy crisis and the urge to go back to coal. This song appeared on his CD The Great Atomic Power, which came out in ....... 2005.
The text of this song is very visionary and the song is performed in a way that could only be done this way in Belgium....., with an artistic connection to Congo Africa.
It is all very refreshing and rather optimistic, but it is first of all a song about today, written more than 15 years ago. Enjoy!
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground
In the church of the lost and found
The angels cry
Ride, ride until the darkness closes in
Until the ravaged soul begins
To reflect the open skies, ride....
I want to clarify that all my images with these "faces" are my photos taken with a mannequin that is always mine.
They are not created in SL or taken in shared photo sites.
In this photo the only silhouette taken from a free site is the woman on the door, in the public domain ..
So please do not put images of groups in SL in the comments and especially groups whose theme is erotic or sensual or worse, otherwise you will be banned,

I'm not sure what species this little guy is - I've heard them called Sanderlings or Sandpipers. Perhaps a Flickr birder can clarify for me. In any case, walking along the beaches of PEI in September, there seemed to be quite a few little groups of them trotting along the edge of the surf along the beach. They moved around very quickly but I caught this one in the late afternoon sidelight, poking around for edibles. With the reflection in the still waters, it seemed to be doing the Snow White mirror, mirror incantation.

Hidden almost out of sight, just off the Huron Street bridge in downtown Stratford, Ontario lies the Shakespearean Gardens. This well manicured English garden offers a formal setting with boxwood hedges,stone walkways, benches and gazebo yet comes alive with the brilliant colour of an amazing array of flowers, herbs, shrubs and trees.
The views from the garden are just as impressive with the historic Perth County Courthouse to one side and the gently flowing Avon River on the other side. Stone steps and a pathway along the Avon River lead you underneath the old Huron Street bridge and towards the Shakespeare Festival.
The image today was taken this Morning during my break at work. The view is a Macro shot of a small withered leaf as seen along its edge. As it's Monday this image serves as both my Photo and edit for my iPhone 365 project and my entry for Macro Mondays - Edge.
The photo was taken using a Macro Lens attachment and the app Cortex Camera on my iPhone 6.
First I used the app Snapseed to edit the picture. I cropped the image and applied the Tonal Contrast preset. I then increased the Structure and Sharpness a little and boosted the Contrast, Saturation and Shadows. After this I decreased the Highlights, and Warmth. I finally used the Brush feature to desaturate the background desk from the leaf. After this I used the app PicsArt to apply the De-noise correction to the image, then I applied the Artistic Oil Painting FX preset. Finally I used PhotoToaster to add the Clarify preset, the Vibrant FX and a Large dark vignette. I then applied the Paper preset and the Shadow II frame.

If loving is your target.
Then aim yourself at me..
Cause I can go the distance
If you believe
If you believe in you ...(Schiller)
two figures in the threshold between silence and light. the walls reflect them without distortion, but also without truth. whatâs real â the gesture, the stance, the shape â is doubled, not clarified. the space is geometry, the light is clean, but the moment remains ambiguous. this is where conversation meets architecture. or where nothing happens at all â and thatâs why it stays.
March 3, 1966: “A flash of sanity: the momentary realization that there is no need to come to certain conclusions about persons, events, conflicts, trends, even trends toward evil and disaster, as if from day to day and even from moment to moment I had to know and declare (at least to myself) that this is so and so, this is good and this is bad. We are heading for a “new era” or we are heading for destruction. What do such judgments mean? Little or nothing. Things are as they are in an immense whole of which I am a part and which I cannot pretend to grasp. To say I grasp it is immediately put myself in a false position, as if I were “outside” it. Whereas to be in it is to seek truth in my own life and action, moving where movement is possible and keeping still when movement is unnecessary, realizing that things will continue to define themselves and that judgments and mercies of God will clarify themselves and will be more clear to me if I am silent and attentive, obedient to His will, rather than constantly formulating statements in this age which is smothered in language, in meaningless and inconclusive debate in which, in the last analysis, nobody listens to anything except what agrees with his own prejudices.”

Oil on linen canvas 2016
This painting is one of the series "Eternity"
I want to clarify the title of the painting. It arrived from my dream. I don't know whether there is or ever was a mountain with such a strange name...
The beauty of the 50mm lens (and this AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G is a beautiful lens) is that it clarifies everything to a specific point of view. If you want to increase your field of view, you have to walk backwards. Or in this case you become part of the landscape itself. You can't zoom in, you just have to get in there among the wide grasses on the river bank. For me the highlight was capturing that green channel marker.
A cattle egret returning with another stick for the nest. Another image from my trip to Jefferson Island. Just to clarify.....Jefferson Island is not really an island. Its a salt dome. Everything near the coast in south Louisiana is flat. The only hills are the salt domes so I suppose when the hurricanes come in they would flood everything except the salt domes and they would then be considered islands. I am sure some of my Cajun friends could clarify. I am from north Louisiana and the terrain here is quite different.
